Newbold Targets

Has anyone tried the newbold hang tuff targets that i see in my dillon blue press catalog. They look like they would work well but i'm wondering if i shoot 9mm lead round nose how long they would last ?

trapguy,

I don't have any first hand experience, but a friend has some of the 8" pivot base Newbold targets. If you get them, from what my friend's recommendation is, don't ever use wadcutter or hollow-point bullets on them, as it chews the plastic compound up a lot more than round nosed bullets.

BTW, here are two links related to the Newbold targets:

On the second link, you'll have to have Adobe's Acrobat Reader installed to view the link.

Good luck, shoot safe and shoot well!
